Kim Candilora II, aka KC Supreme, is a ten-time platinum, six-time #1 Billboard-charting elite music producer from Salt Lake City, Utah. He is most known for the song "Falling" by Trevor Daniel, which generated over one billion streams on Spotify, went #1 on Pop Radio, and won 2 BMI Awards. He began making beats his junior year of high school for fun and started his actual career in music by working at a local recording studio at 23 years old, where he would record local artists and sell them beats. nbsp;
In 2015 Candilora decided to put all his effort into selling his beats online, rebranding himself as KC Supreme. This direction switch and rebranding led to him meeting Taz Taylor, an American record producer, songwriter, record executive, and the founder of the Internet Money collective and record label. After joining the Internet Money collective in 2016, KC has since worked with Juice Wrld, Chris Brown, Trippie Redd, Lil Tecca, Kevin Gates, Megan Thee Stallion, Don Toliver, Polo G, and many more. KC Supreme was also featured on the 2020 Variety Magazine Hitmakers List.
When describing the defining moment on his journey to becoming a super producer, KC Supreme says, "My defining moment happened when I was just coming into the music industry and joined Internet Money. When I met Taz Taylor in 2016, Internet Money was a brand new thing he was creating. We were only focused on selling beats online and YouTube tutorials. Later on, the team evolved into what it is today; becoming a label, signing artists, and releasing our own songs. It's crazy to see what it has become, and I'm very grateful to Taz, my manager Birdman and the whole team; without them, I wouldn't be where I am today. I can't wait for people to see what's next for Internet Money."

KC tells us, "The most satisfying thing about making music is seeing your hard work come to fruition and going from the moment of being in the studio just coming up with ideas with an artist to it finally releasing and seeing people respond to it positively.
He continues, "I feel like all types of creators can relate to this whether you are a painter or a photographer, seeing your creation come to life and having people like it; there's no better feeling. It's like a drug. It's also really satisfying when you work with an artist with which you have a lot of chemistry; for me, that artist is Trevor (Daniel). Whenever we link up, the music flows so effortlessly."
